I’m not defending NYers
i just see the pot calling the kettle black on steriods
ive lived here all my 38yrs... I get annoyed with locals, everyone thinks they are a star cause they make a few bucks and everyone knows a mobster out here, but I’ve also been to Boston, Philly... that’s why I originally said northeasteners0 -

i can't imagine how horrible and nationalistic it is going to be for the Ryder Cup.
Buy hey here in Philly we threw snowballs at Santa Claus before most of our current fans were even born but we are horrible people because of it.0 -
Im from Farmingdale, the town that holds 75% of Bethpage State Park.....I live 20 minutes North of there as of 2 years ago
I just found it funny someone from Philly would bring that up, and single out NYers, like your immune.
little ignorant statement? If you polled people whose fans/people are the nastiest.....we all know who would win.
I highly doubt no one crossed any lines in Merion, How could you even verify....you can talk about this weekend cause its fresh in our minds....Im sure there were some wing bowl folks at Merion

I thought Merion was well behaved, but I heard some racist stuff about Tiger a couple times. Not yelling but just being said in a manner that people have no business saying things like that.
Ryder cup is going to be a disaster.0 -
the dumbest stuff I heard was MRS GRETZKY and Paulina related things
it was dumb....and some slob yelling at all on the 16th green that BETHPAGE DOESNT FUCKINNNN BREAKKKK
He was right, but keep it to yourself......Its definatly a Norheast thing.....but overserving people anywhere brings out the inner asshole

Rory, who while under achieving, has one of the better A games out there, concentrates on strength/flexibility
The guy who who 4 out of the last 8 majors, concentrates....
These guys are just athletes. Why not be stronger than everyone else?
Also, I don't think people are going to care nearly as much about longevity as they once did with the money out there. Dominate for 10 years, make tens of millions on winnings, and untold more on sponsorship's and go do your thing. The Champion's Tour is going to be in rough shape when people don't need to play it to feed their families/pay alimony
Who gives a shit what Hank Haney has to say...
I guess I agree with your second point....but longevity was the whole point of Eddie's initial post.
And regarding Tiger, Hank knows his game better than just about anyone in the world. So I definitely care what he has to say about that subject.
Does he though? Haney is a whore and has made more money off the celebrity of "coaching" the best player in the world (who probably didn't even need a coach) than he has off of anything else. If I were listing the people who know Tigers game the most it goes.
Tiger
MASSIVE, MASSIVE, MASSIVE, MASSIVE GAP

Maybe some other random people close to him

I don't begrudge the guy for making money.
And he was Woods' coach for like 8 years. I think he knows his shit and I respect his opinion.Post edited by The Juggler onwww.myspace.com0 -
I heard Koepka say “ it felt like a real sporting event”
im sure it’s annoying to them, and he was giving a safe answer, but he’s doing pretty good up here... Shinnecock last year
It did feel like a music festival atmosphere, I’ve been to 2 US Opens, this PGA and a few other events.... this had the youngest crowd I’ve seen.
Lotta weed vaping and drinking $15 beers0 -

I don't really begrudge anyone for making money. That's fine, but he's more of a celebrity, TV, book coach, club sponsor than anything else at this point. I think he's a clown.
Butch's swing was the best swing. Haney sucks.0 -

I am also of the opinion, in general, that Tiger never needed a coach/instructor, so I think they are all extremely overrated, but I think Butch Tiger was a better swing0 -
I repeat, Hank Haney sucks.0
